Guess who’s coming next for Age of Sigmar? Looks like AoS will be roaring back soon with the Aelfs Here’s the latest on their minis:
BoLS is reporting that it looks like the previews from Warhammer Fest were foreshadowing the arrival of the Aelfs!
The Aelf Release
Industry sources tell BoLS:
Aelfs are the next faction in the Age of Sigmar release schedule
Look for a multi-week release window on par with January’s Fyreslayers
The modelcounts listed are:
- 2 New Foot Units
- 1 Oversized cavalry unit
- 1 Large Monster kit
- Aelf Battletome
- Aelf Painting Guide
One of the foot units is described as and “Aelf-Dryad” unit, while the big monster kit is described as a “beetle”.
BoLS also pointed out that rumormonger Squiggly just also mentioned the Aelfs as upcoming too:
- The Aelfs are Slyvaneth
- The Dryads are armed with halberd/sickle weapons
What it all Means:
Well a full on Aelf release makes sense, as the new AoS summer campaign seems figure the Aelfs and Slaanesh prominently. Plus the story line in the Realmgate wars sorta of left a cliffhanger there as well.
Now consider all this with the pictures that we saw at Warhammer Fest this weekend.
~Beetle mounts and dryad swordmasters incoming?
